The innovative Heckert DBF 630 six-axis machining center from Starrag USA Inc. (Hebron, KY) uses a B-over-A trunnion table coupled with a 45 kW (60 hp)/ 1,700 Nm (1,254 ft-lb) torque fully-integrated U-axis head for turning, milling, boring, drilling and thread generation of complete parts in a single set-up. With this machine, OEMs and top-tier suppliers in the oil and gas market, for example, are making significant savings on workpieces such as fluid ends, gate valves, drill bits and pump housings. The Heckert DBF 630 uses 630 mm x 630 mm pallets to accommodate loads up to 1,000 kg. Its 40-tool ATC is standard. The DBF head permits single set-up milling, boring, drilling and turning, comprising a faceplate with an integrated work spindle and CNC radial facing slide. For turning on a fixed workpiece, the rotating turning tool – which has an axial runout of just five/six microns – can be radially adjusted by ±35 mm. In addition to external, internal and face turning, the head also permits conical and contour turning with the NC axis of the radial facing slide. For milling and drilling, the work spindle is arranged in a central position.
